Eisai was the manufacturer, importer, and marketer of chemical equipment, clinical diagnostic reagents, clinical analyzers, and laboratory reagents. Sekisui purchased the Eidia from Eisai for US$ 18 million.
Europe is expected to show significant lifescience reagent growth rate, owing to increasing number of approvals from the European Union for the diagnostics reagents and assays. For instance, in March 2017, HTG Molecular Diagnostics, Inc. received CE marking in the European Union for its HTG EdgeSeq ALKPlus Assay EU. The company is provider of instruments, reagents, and services for molecular profiling applications. HTG EdgeSeq ALKPlus Assay EU is an in vitro diagnostic assay used to measure and analyze mRNA ALK gene rearrangements in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded lung tumor specimens from patients previously diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
